My Indian experienceby !Shankpony

Photography / Photojournalism / People

My most popular shot. Of my travels this shot has found a place in my home. It reminds me of the many aspects of India, both old world, and new world...it's a reminder that no matter where you go it's all relative. And I love shadows.

goa is one of the best parts of india, don't go to bombay it's polluted

you wouldn't have enjoyed Calcutta then, make Bombay look like Sydney. Not a fan of Goa personally but many people loved it. I thought Rajastan was incredible but all of India was great and unique

for me bombay was depressing,when my grandmother and i were in a taxi peopele of the slums were begging us for money and there were alot of people with leprosy.

Many people in the world are living like that, I've been to about 60 countries and I have seen that in half of those countries. It's sadly a part of life that when we travel we should embrace and do our best to help in what ever way you feel fit.

It very obvious why this is your most popular shot. It's simply amazing. You can tell it's one of those moments that you could never recreate, no matter how much you tried. The lighting is just phenomenal, the way it pours in and literally washes over the subject. I love the long shadow, the bike, the vegetation growing on the right wall...there are just too many aspects that come together to make this one so extraordinary.

thanks so much...this is one of those f8 shots...i turned a corner heading back to my hostel and the light was perfect. And this was when I had no real idea how to use an slr...just make sure the light works and work from that. Thanks so much for the comment, I appreciate it!
